| Breaking News |  | Monday, September 4th, 2028: Marijn 6-6 for White Horses
6 hits in a game has always been a magic number in baseball. Only a handful of players will do that. Get 6 hits in a game and you get your moment of glory... your 5 minutes of fame... you get your name in the record book.
In the White Horses 9-7 win over Unified Korea, Gerolt Marijn was red-hot today, scorching them for hit after hit at Ironsi Stadium.
"To hit the ball consistently well, you have to relax. I was relaxed for the first four hits, but I must admit, I got a little tight when I realized I had a chance for a 6-hit game. On the last at-bat, I was ready to swing at anything close."
On his big day Marijn delivered 6 hits in 6 at-bats.
G. Marijn singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th, singled in the 7th, hit a two-run home run off A. Demarco in the 9th and hit a two-run home run off C. Chiwk in the 10th.
In 2028 Marijn is currently batting .301 with 14 home runs and 84 RBIs. In 125 games he has reached base at a .390 rate and scored 93 runs to date.
